FAQ
Day trip from Tokyo?
Possible, but the bus eats the day. Stay one night if seeing Fuji matters.
Will I see Fuji?
Not guaranteed. Clouds are common, especially in summer and the rainy season.
Need a car?
Sightseeing buses cover the main stops. A car helps if you want several viewpoints in one day.
